Congratulations! That is such wonderful news. A baby girl - just lovely. I love little children, so that's why I'm so thrilled for you. Enjoy every minute with little Beth. They grow up sooooo fast, and before you know it, they are taller than you, KNOW more than you etc! Thank you so much for your comment to me. I guess I should have gone to your first page and I would have read about baby Beth, but I have your last blog saved and go there to see if another one has been posted. I'll still be watching out for more blogs from you, and might comment again sometime, if you wouldn't mind. Hope you make it back to Oz. (come on Paula!) I have longed to go back for years now, and can hardly wait. Also gotta go to NZ, as I spent almost a yr there too. (My mum used to call me a gypsy!)
All the very best to the three of you.
How nice! To last commentor...... thanks for your wee note - that was nice. We should be publishing a blog soon featuring our little mini egg 'Beth' who was born on the 23rd Jan - 4 weeks early! It'll probably be from either Knutsford or Manchester where Alan is working at the moment so we spend a bit of time down there. Hope you have a great time in Aus - we cannot wit to go back again and have been poking our pal Paula to get her man down the aisle to give us an early reason to travel there again! Byeee! x
I loved reading your blogs and still keep checking if there are anymore posts. Actually waiting to hear about the birth of mini egg! Hopefully we'll see a few pics. Sure miss the humour/wit that was so distinctive to you guys. By the way, I'm the one who commented on "Geraldton" way back when. It sounds like you were right. The place is dead now. I am going to Oz within the next year or so and am going to make a point of heading over to the west coast and up to Geraldton just to see how things have changed. Should be interesting! Take care.
Bra Fence Bra Fence was started in 1999. 4 women put their bras on it. Over the years many other bras were added and it became abig tourist attraction. This year, Queenstown and Lakes District Council decided it was a hazard and so the bras have all been removed. A local woman, Celia Williams is writing a book about it to raise money for breast cancer research.
How exciting..... ...to see the first of the photos of the big day - thank you! Having a fab time in Paris, Moulin Rouge was great, just off to get ready for our dinner cruise down the River Seine...see you guys in a few weeks. xx
Thanks Gary. You may be interested to know that I have some rather interesting snaps of yourself that might just grace these pages one of these days. Sx Ken Dodd died. Diddy? No, Doddy. Thats m'fav Ken Dodd joke. Good, eh?
Separated at birth? That last photo reminded me of something..
These two have never been seen in the same room!

Mini Egg Congratualtions, I would have never thought it possible. Look forward to seeing you all at some point, so i guess it will be wedding bells next!!! Good luck to you all Marina X
How Egg-citing! Congrats on the news! There must be something in the water. There are Eggs popping up all over the place these days!

Well done Al, no before time...and of course well done to mum to be...eek! Welcome soon to the even madder world of parenthood, you'll both be great teachers for wee egg.
Bowness Yah Bass! If that was the real Bo'ness ye would have yer teeth kicked for wearing that shirt!!. Incidently that pub is just roond the cornner waur oor mate Keef used tae bide.
Anyway noce tae see yeh back - hope tae catch up soon.
Appreciation to the BLOGS :) Reading the BLOGs has been ace. A very detailed and witty set of reports. I am just back in the office after two weeks in Barbados. Needless to say that upon returning we are already looking at where to go next year. Work is indeed that utterly BALLS.
I have never seen a spider so big! That ant hill was pretty huge too!
I really hate bugs so I would have just died if I saw any of that. See I'm from Louisana we don't have no big things like that. I'd rather see it in picture than in real life!
Hullo!! We did a big fat trip a wee while ago covering Bonnie Scotland (our home), France, Spain, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Australia, New Zealand and China. Then we came home and had a lovely baby girl called Beth and Alan went back to work. Beth is 14 months old now (I know - where does the time go??) and we haven't been anywhere exotic for yonks. Consequently we are now 'dormant bloggers' which makes us feel a bit dreary, so we better get our skates on and find some good places to visit and report on pronto!!.................... full info
